Hej & välkommen to my latest post on Stockholm; the capital of Sweden!
This was a mini trip which spanned over a long weekend. We were there for the National Day of Sweden which was on the 6th of June.
Look, I’m going to have to start this blog with the obvious topic which everyone knows is the big elephant in the room. Why are all Scandinavians, especially the Swedes so incredibly good looking? What’s in their water? Why are their genes so good?
Okay good, rant over. Now the travel blogging can begin.
After I was able to hitch my dropped jaw back into place, I hired a bike and zipped around all weekend long. Weeeeeeee.
I basically cannot give you too much detailed information about this trip, but not because I don’t want to. I normally don’t do too much research on a place before I travel. For this reason, I like to hire a bike (weather permitting) and follow my loins wherever the wind takes me. The most obvious must-sees however would be the Royal Palace and Gamla Stan which is the old town of Stockholm.
I hope you’ll be able to recognise/ get *some* help from my photos in this blog at least!
If you have any questions/comments or feedback, just leave a message. I read them all and will respond to you.

Gazing out onto Stockholm’s harbour.

In the central park. Hiring a bike is the best way to see a city, every time!

Wooden boats add to the charm.

Standing on Djurgårdsbron – the bridge which goes over to the theme park island.

Sverige!

Once you get away from the countryside, you’ll see cute and quaint homes like this.

Stockholm is a city surrounded by water. There are boats everywhere!

And more of the boat variety….

Standing from the Djurgårdsbron bridge, you can see plenty of tour companies offering day trips.

Nice and sunny, apparently unusual weather for Stockholm we were told!

Dreamy!

It’s a very picturesque city, isn’t it?

Hanging at the Kungliga Motorbåtklubben.

This is quite close to the bridge Djurgårdsbron

Summer time in Sweden!

Fab weather – a fab day.

Nice public parks and gardens.

Deciding on what to eat.

The Palace.

Peace!

Goodbye Stockholm! You’ve been grand.
